Maybe an early Suburban kind of build?  Gratuitous explosion thrown in at no extra cost.  |

My worst worry about dying is my wife selling my stuff for what I told her it cost...

This 1941 Chevy Special Deluxe is now being offered for sale in Ohio:
 Of course, 5.7L Hemi powered AWD and comfortably seats five people. Runs cool, all lights & signals work, cruise control, no AC, but the compressor is on the engine. Flowmaster exhaust, great disc brakes on all four corners and brand new wheels and tires. Good heat and ready to travel. Serious inquiries, PM me.
Once again- Thank you RR for all your fun comments on all the builds! More to come....

Last night- They drag raced the Hemi Duranged against the old blue coyote swapped Ford truck! I'm piecing together iPhone clips and pics now!!

that'll be interesting!
is the doo-ranged actually as glossy as it looks in the pics?

Yes it is. They sprayed clear on it and did a bit of patching up. Looks great. I'll get that race footage up soon...

surprised you didn't go for a flat coat , it would have kept that beautiful weather worn look.

They always use glossy, I agree some builds look better flat, but they all look cool when the finishing touches are put on!

i suppose the lucky new owner could always flat it back easily enough if they prefer the "lived in" look too.

Just feedback, so take it for what it is worth. Love everything about this build except for the high-gloss finish. Sorry, it looks like pure-sex covered in latex. Still a great thing, but .... Now, since I have your attention, what I need you to do next is combine the attributes of a modern over the road tractor with the bodywork of a 1940's or so school-bus.  |

You're on to something there- We watched a 1940ish school bus resto-mod cross the block last year at 117K.
Love the idea.

Do you get 1940s short buses?
|

We do. I may have found something:   I think it would make a wicked hot rod/bicycle repair or stunt show van. If I had the extra money, I would buy it. He's asking $2100 USD and it has a good title. Not sure how I would get that huge body off that frame without cutting it up, but it is pretty cool. |

get your short hands further into your deep pockets....that would be amazing! (as long as it didn't have a glossy clearcoat. ;-) )

No idea why the windows have been painted, the inside looks exactly like the outside. Same flaking paint colors, it's complete too. It's a blank canvas. My car guys are not sharing my enthusiasm.
It could be really cool. Wide tires, aggressive tread, lowered stance, four exhaust pipes out each side a vintage mural painted on it. I think it would be gnarly!
